                     TRANS-LUX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 2004
                                  (unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

Financial information included herein is unaudited, however, such information
reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements for the interim
periods.  The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.  It is suggested that the
September 30, 2004 consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Certain reclassifications of the prior year's amounts have been made to conform
to the current year's presentation.

In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 46R, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an
Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (revised December 2003)"
("FIN 46R"), which addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether
it has a controlling interest in an entity through means other than voting
rights and accordingly should consolidate the entity.  Before concluding that it
is appropriate to apply the Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 voting interest
consolidation model to an entity, an enterprise must first determine that the
entity is not a variable interest entity.  The adoption of FIN 46R on March 31,
2004, did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.

The Company records compensation expense for its stock-based employee
compensation plans in accordance with the intrinsic-value method prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees." Intrinsic value is the amount by which the market price of the
underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the stock option or award on the
measurement date, generally the date of grant.  The Company's options are issued
with a strike price equal to the market price of the underlying stock at date of
grant and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock
option plans.  In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
- Transition and Disclosure," that amends SFAS No. 123 ("SFAS 123"),
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." The following table illustrates the
effect on net income and earnings per share for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2004 and 2003 if the Company had applied the fair value
recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation:

Note 3 - Long-Term Debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, long-term debt, including
current portion, decreased $5.2 million, primarily due to the use of the
proceeds received from the sale of the Company's Australian subsidiary and from
the sale of the Company's Norwalk, Connecticut headquarters to pay down debt and
regular scheduled payments of long-term debt, offset by $1.7 million of advances
on a construction loan to expand the Company's movie theatre in Durango,
Colorado.

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company completed a refinancing of its
senior debt with two term loans totaling $17.0 million and a revolving credit
facility of up to $5.0 million at variable interest rates ranging from LIBOR
plus 1.75% to Prime plus 0.25% (3.41% at September 30, 2004) and maturing
October 1, 2005.  The Company is in discussions with lenders to seek longer term
financing of its senior debt.  At September 30, 2004, the entire revolving
credit facility was available as none had been drawn.  The bank credit agreement
requires an annual facility fee on the unused commitment of 0.25%, and requires
compliance with certain financial covenants, which include a fixed charge
coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, a total funded debt ratio of 5.0 to 1.0, a
leverage ratio of 3.0 to 1.0 and maintaining a tangible net worth of not less
than $20.0 million, plus 50% of annual net income.  At September 30, 2004, the
Company was in compliance with such financial covenants.

On April 14, 2004, the Company successfully completed its offer to exchange
$1,000 principal amount of its new 8 1/4% Limited Convertible Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2012 ("New Notes") for each $1,000 principal amount of
its 7 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2006 ("Old Notes").  The exchange
offer commenced March 2, 2004 and expired on April 14, 2004.  A total of $17.9
million principal amount of Old Notes were exchanged, leaving $12.3 million
principal amount of Old Notes outstanding.  The New Notes provide for a higher
interest rate, have a longer term, will be convertible into Common Stock at a
lower conversion price of $9.00 per share until March 1, 2007 and are senior to
the Old Notes and the Company's 9 1/2% Subordinated Debentures due 2012.

Note 4 - Sale of Assets and Discontinued Operation

Sale of Assets

On March 28, 2003, the Company sold its custom sports business located in Logan,
Utah for $7.9 million, of which $3.7 million was paid in cash and $4.2 million
was in assumption of two Industrial Revenue Bonds.  The Company recorded a gain
of approximately $876,000, net of tax, on the sale.  As part of the sale, the
Company recorded bonuses to certain continuing employees of $75,000, which was
included in the recorded gain.  As a result of the sale, the Company is
reporting lower revenues.  The operations and cash flows of the custom sports
business were not clearly distinguishable from other components of the outdoor
display segment and therefore have not been reported as a discontinued
operation.

                                       5
<PAGE>

On June 3, 2004, the Company entered into a sale/leaseback of its Norwalk,
Connecticut headquarters for a sales price of $8.1 million, of which $5.5
million was paid in cash and the balance of $2.6 million is payable, with
interest, four years from closing.  The Company leased back the property for
four years, after which a three-year lease for part of the building will take
effect.  In accordance with SFAS No. 28 "Accounting for Sales with Leasebacks,"
the Company recorded a gain of approximately $2.5 million ($1.5 million, net of
tax), on the sale and deferred $2.2 million of the gain for a total gain of $4.7
million.  The deferred gain represents the present value of the lease payments
over the term of the leaseback and will be recognized proportionately to the
rental charge over the next seven years.  The $2.6 million balance of the
purchase price, included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets, is
secured by a purchase money mortgage subordinate to a $3.5 million first
mortgage in favor of the purchaser's lender.  In conjunction with the sale, the
Company prepaid $4.9 million of its long-term debt with its senior lenders.

Discontinued Operation

On April 28, 2004, the Company completed an agreement to sell the capital stock
of its Australian subsidiary, Trans-Lux Pty Limited ("PTY"), for $1.7 million in
cash, and the operating results were assumed by the buyer effective as of
February 29, 2004.  In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144,
"Accounting For the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets," the Company
has accounted for PTY as a discontinued operation.  The consolidated financial
statements reflect the assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation and
the operations for the prior periods are reported as a discontinued operation.

Note 6 - Business Segment Data

The Company evaluates segment performance and allocates resources based upon
operating income.  The Company's operations are managed in three reportable
business segments.  The Display Division comprises two operating segments,
Indoor display and Outdoor display.  Both design, produce, lease, sell and
service large-scale, multi-color, real-time electronic information displays.
Both operating segments are conducted on a global basis, primarily through
operations in the U.S.  The Company also has operations in Canada.  The Indoor
display and Outdoor display segments are differentiated primarily by the
customers they serve.  The Entertainment/real estate segment owns a chain of
motion picture theatres in the western Mountain States and income-producing real
estate properties.  Segment operating income is shown after general and
administrative expenses directly associated with the segment and includes the
operating results of the joint venture activities.  Corporate general and
administrative items relate to costs that are not directly identifiable with a
segment.  There are no intersegment sales.

Note 7 - Components of Net Periodic Pension Cost

In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132R, "Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS 132R").  SFAS 132R revises
the financial statement disclosures required for pension and postretirement
obligations, including new interim disclosures.  As of December 31, 2003, the
benefit service under the pension plan has been frozen and, accordingly, there
is no service cost for the period ended September 30, 2004.

<TABLE>
The following table presents the components of net periodic pension cost:

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations


Overview

Trans-Lux is a full service provider of integrated multimedia systems for
today's communications environments.  The essential elements of these systems
are the real-time, programmable electronic information displays we manufacture,
distribute and service.  Designed to meet the evolving communications needs of
both the indoor and outdoor markets, these displays are used primarily in
applications for the financial, banking, gaming, corporate, transportation,
entertainment and sports industries.  In addition to its display business, the
Company owns and operates a chain of motion picture theatres in the western
Mountain States.  The Company operates in three reportable segments: Indoor
display, Outdoor display and Entertainment/Real Estate.

The Indoor display segment includes worldwide revenues and related expenses from
the rental, maintenance and sale of indoor displays.  This segment includes the
financial, gaming, government and corporate markets.  The Outdoor display
segment includes worldwide revenues and related expenses from the rental,
maintenance and sale of outdoor displays.  Included in this segment are the
custom sports (which the Company sold during the first quarter of 2003), catalog
sports, retail and commercial markets.  In addition, on April 28, 2004, the
Company sold its Australian operations, effective as of February 29, 2004.  The
Company has accounted for the Australian operations as a discontinued operation.
Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements reflect the assets and
liabilities of the discontinued operation and the operations for the current and
prior periods are reported as a discontinued operation (see Note 4).  Also, on
June 3, 2004, the Company entered into a sale/leaseback of its Norwalk,
Connecticut headquarters.  The Entertainment/Real Estate segment includes the
operations of the motion picture theatres in the western Mountain States and
income-producing real estate properties.


Results of Operations

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30,
2003

Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 decreased 8.7% to
$39.5 million from $43.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003,
principally due to the sale of the custom sports business during the first
quarter of 2003.  As a result of the sale, the Company is reporting lower
revenues (see Note 4).  The operations and cash flows of the custom sports
business were not clearly distinguishable from other components of the outdoor
display segment and therefore have not been reported as a discontinued
operation.

Indoor display revenues decreased $176,000 or 1.3%.  Of this decrease, Indoor
display equipment rentals and maintenance revenues decreased $579,000 or 6.4%,
primarily due to disconnects and non-renewals of equipment on rental and
maintenance on existing contracts in the financial services and energy markets,
offset by an increase in Indoor display equipment sales of $403,000 or 8.5%, due
to an increase in sales in the gaming market.  The financial services market
continues to be negatively impacted due to the downturn in the economy,
resulting in consolidation within that industry.  Although the market conditions
appear to be improving, installations of new equipment tend to lag any economic
turnaround.

                                       9
<PAGE>


Outdoor display revenues decreased $3.4 million or 17.4%.  Of this decrease,
Outdoor display equipment sales decreased $2.9 million or 20.1%, primarily in
the custom outdoor sports sector, which decrease was primarily a result of the
sale of the custom sports business during the first quarter of 2003 and a
decrease in catalog sports sales.  Outdoor display equipment rentals and
maintenance revenues decreased $464,000 or 9.5%, primarily due to the continued
expected revenue decline in the outdoor equipment rentals and maintenance bases
previously acquired, although the decline has lessened.

Entertainment/real estate revenues decreased $201,000 or 2.0%.  Gross box office
and concession revenue is ahead of last year, but is offset by a decrease in
film booking income.  In April 2004, the Company expanded one of its Durango,
Colorado theatres from a five-plex to a seven-plex.  In January 2003, the
Company closed its older non-profitable Lake Dillon theatre for a net payment of
$34,000 to the landlord.  In connection with its newer six-plex theatre in
Dillon, Colorado, which currently is in the process of a two screen expansion,
the Company entered into a 15-year non-compete agreement for $450,000, which was
paid in 2003.

Total operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 increased
15.6% to $5.3 million from $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2003, principally due to the sale of the custom sports business during the first
quarter of 2003, and certain cost savings measures initiated by the Company
during the second quarter of 2003.

Indoor display operating income increased $354,000 or 18.3%, primarily as a
result of the increase in revenues in the gaming market combined with lower
general and administrative costs.  The cost of indoor displays represented 61.9%
of related revenues in 2004 compared to 60.2% in 2003.  The cost of indoor
displays as a percentage of related revenues increased primarily due to the
relationship between field service costs of equipment rentals and maintenance
decreasing and the revenues from indoor equipment rentals and maintenance also
decreasing but not at the same rate.  The Company initiated certain cost saving
measures in 2003 to reduce field service costs and continues to strategically
address the field service costs.  Indoor display cost of equipment sales
increased $123,000 or 1.5%, primarily due to volume mix.  Indoor display cost of
equipment rentals and maintenance remained constant, largely due to certain cost
savings measures initiated during the second quarter of 2003, such as a
reduction in field service costs payroll, benefits and overhead expenses.
Indoor display general and administrative expenses decreased $653,000 or 18.4%
due to continued reduction of certain overhead costs such as sales salaries and
travel expenses.  Cost of indoor equipment rentals and maintenance includes
field service expenses, plant repair costs, maintenance and depreciation.

Outdoor display operating income increased $326,000 to $619,000 from $293,000,
primarily as a result of the sale of the custom outdoor sports business, which
was sold during the first quarter of 2003.  The cost of outdoor displays
represented 80.0% of related revenues in 2004 compared to 81.5% in 2003.  This
improvement is due to a reduction in field service costs of approximately
$277,000, the sale of the custom outdoor sports business and a reduction in the
cost of raw materials.  Outdoor display cost of equipment sales decreased $3.0
million or 18.9%, principally due to the decrease in volume, as a result of the
sale of the custom sports business during the first quarter of 2003.  Outdoor
display cost of equipment rentals and maintenance decreased $261,000 or 5.8%,
primarily due to a decrease in field service costs payroll, benefits and
overhead expenses.  Outdoor display general and administrative expenses
decreased $723,000 or 22.0%, primarily due to sale of the custom sports business
during the first quarter of 2003 and collections of previously reserved accounts
receivable.  Cost of outdoor equipment rentals and maintenance includes field
service expenses, plant repair costs, maintenance and depreciation.

Entertainment/real estate operating income increased $35,000 or 1.5%, primarily
due to a decrease in operating expenses.  The cost of entertainment/real estate
represented 74.8% of related revenues in 2004 compared to 75.2% in 2003.  This
improvement is due to reduction of certain operating expenses such as payroll
and benefits.  Cost of entertainment/real estate, which includes film rental
costs and depreciation expense, decreased $184,000 or 2.4%.  Entertainment/real
estate general and administrative expenses decreased $172,000 due to continued
reduction of certain overhead costs such as salaries and travel expenses.

Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased $840,000 or 18.3%,
principally resulting from certain cost saving measures initiated during the
second quarter of 2003 and reduction in certain overhead costs primarily in
pension and benefit costs offset by a $81,000 positive impact of the effect of
foreign currency rates in 2004 compared to a $132,000 positive impact in 2003.

Net interest expense decreased $234,000, which is primarily attributable to a
decrease in long-term debt due to the assumption of debt by the purchaser of the
custom sports business, use of proceeds from the sale of its Australian
subsidiary in April 2004, the sale/leaseback of its headquarters facility in
June 2004 and regular scheduled payments of long-term debt offset by an increase
in variable interest rates.  The gain on sale of assets in 2004 relates to the
sale/leaseback of its Norwalk, Connecticut headquarters.  The gain on sale of
assets in 2003 relates to the sale of the custom sports business and the sale of
vacant land, also in Norwalk, Connecticut.  The income from joint venture
relates to the operations of the theatre joint venture, MetroLux Theatres, in
Loveland, Colorado, which decreased due to additional competition in the area.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was
41.9% and 64.9%, respectively.  The higher rate in 2003 was due principally to
the non-deductibility of a $229,000 write-off of goodwill resulting from the
sale of the custom sports business.


Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 2003

Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2004 decreased 3.2% to
$14.1 million from $14.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003.
Indoor display revenues increased $468,000 or 11.1%.  Of this increase, Indoor
display equipment sales increased $594,000 or 42.6%, due to an increase in sales
in the gaming market offset by a decrease in Indoor display equipment rentals
and maintenance revenues of $126,000 or 4.5%, primarily due to disconnects and
non-renewals of equipment on rental and maintenance on existing contracts in the
financial services and energy markets.  The financial services market continues
to be negatively impacted due to the downturn in the economy, resulting in
consolidation within that industry.  Although the market conditions appear to be
improving, installations of new equipment tend to lag any economic turnaround.

Outdoor display revenues decreased $553,000 or 8.3%.  Of this decrease, Outdoor
display equipment sales decreased $450,000 or 8.9%, primarily in the catalog
sports business, although the backlog remains strong.  Outdoor display equipment
rentals and maintenance revenues decreased $103,000 or 6.3%, primarily due to
the continued expected revenue decline in the outdoor equipment rentals and
maintenance bases previously acquired, although the decline has lessened.

Entertainment/real estate revenues decreased $379,000 or 10.3%.  This decrease
is primarily from a decrease in overall admissions and concessions affected by
not as many strong film releases toward the end of the quarter.

Total operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2004 decreased
$653,000 to $1.9 million from $2.5 million for the three months ended September
30, 2003, principally due to a decrease in outdoor catalog sports sales and
lower theatre admissions offset by an increase in indoor display gaming market.

Indoor display operating income increased $238,000 or 46.6%, primarily as a
result of an increase in revenues in the gaming market.  The cost of indoor
displays represented 64.9% of related revenues in 2004 compared to 64.5% in
2003.  The Company initiated certain cost saving measures in 2003 to reduce
field service costs and continues to strategically address the field service
costs.  Indoor display cost of equipment sales increased $270,000 or 32.8%,
primarily due to volume mix.  Indoor display cost of equipment rentals and
maintenance increased slightly.  Indoor display general and administrative
expenses decreased $88,000 or 9.0% due to continued reduction of certain
overhead costs such as sales salaries and travel expenses.  Cost of indoor
equipment rentals and maintenance includes field service expenses, plant repair
costs, maintenance and depreciation.

Outdoor display operating income decreased $603,000 to $462,000 from $1.1
million.  The principal factor contributing to such decrease was a reduction in
Outdoor display equipment sales in the catalog sports market and a decrease in
profit margins of the outdoor display business.  The cost of outdoor displays
represented 76.8% of related revenues in 2004 compared to 69.8% in 2003.
Outdoor display cost of equipment sales decreased $106,000 or 3.1%, principally
due to the decrease in volume.  Outdoor display cost of equipment rentals and
maintenance increased $152,000 or 11.7%, primarily due to an increase in field
service costs, payroll, benefits and overhead expenses.  Outdoor display general
and administrative expenses remained constant.  Cost of outdoor equipment
rentals and maintenance includes field service expenses, plant repair costs,
maintenance and depreciation.

Entertainment/real estate operating income decreased $288,000 or 30.4%,
primarily due to a decrease in overall admissions and an increase in operating
expenses.  The cost of entertainment/real estate represented 77.3% of related
revenues in 2004 compared to 73.3% in 2003.  Cost of entertainment/real estate,
which includes film rental costs and depreciation expense, decreased $150,000 or
5.6% primarily due to film rental costs.  Entertainment/real estate general and
administrative expenses decreased $55,000 due to continued reduction of certain
overhead costs such as salaries and travel expenses.

Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased $556,000 or 39.3%,
principally resulting from a reduction in certain overhead costs primarily in
pension and benefit costs and a $169,000 positive impact of the effect of
foreign currency rates in 2004 compared to a $6,000 positive impact in 2003.

Net interest expense decreased $105,000, which is primarily attributable to a
decrease in long-term debt due to the use of proceeds from the sale of its
Australian subsidiary in April 2004, the sale/leaseback of its headquarters
facility in June 2004 and regular scheduled payments of long-term debt offset by
an increase in variable interest rates.  The income from joint venture relates
to the operations of the theatre joint venture, MetroLux Theatres, in Loveland,
Colorado.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003
was 44.8% and 59.3%, respectively.  The 2003 rate was due principally to an
increase in the provision for foreign and state taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The regular quarterly cash dividend for the third quarter of 2004 of $0.035 per
share on the Company's Common Stock and $0.0315 per share on the Company's Class
B Stock was declared by the Board of Directors on September 23, 2004, payable to
stockholders of record as of October 8, 2004, and was paid October 29, 2004.

                                       12

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company refinanced its senior debt.  The
refinancing consisted of two term loans totaling $17.0 million and a revolving
line of credit of up to $5.0 million at variable interest rates ranging from
LIBOR plus 1.75% to Prime plus 0.25% and matures October 1, 2005.  The Company
is in discussions with lenders to seek longer term financing of its senior debt.
At September 30, 2004, $9.3 million was outstanding under the term loans and the
entire revolving credit facility was available as none had been drawn.  The bank
credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, which include a fixed
charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, a total funded ratio of 5.0 to 1.0, a
leverage ratio of 3.0 to 1.0 and maintaining a tangible net worth of not less
than $20.0 million, plus 50% of net income.  At September 30, 2004, the Company
was in compliance with such financial covenants.  The Company continues to
evaluate the need and availability of long-term capital.

The Company successfully completed its offer to exchange $1,000 principal amount
of its new 8 1/4% Limited Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 for
each $1,000 principal amount of its 7 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes due
2006 (the "Exchange Offer").  The Exchange Offer commenced March 2, 2004 and
expired on April 14, 2004.  A total of $17.9 million principal amount of Old
Notes were exchanged.  The New Notes provide for a higher interest rate, have a
longer term, will be convertible into Common Stock at a lower conversion price
of $9.00 per share until 2007 and are senior to the Old Notes and the Company's
9 1/2% Subordinated Debentures due 2012.

Payments of long-term debt due, including the $9.3 million term loans that
mature October 1, 2005, and the 7 1/2% convertible subordinated notes not
exchanged in the Exchange Offer that mature December 1, 2006, employment and
consulting agreement payments and the future minimum lease payments due under
operating leases for the remainder of 2004 and the next four years are as
follows:

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $940,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2004 compared to an increase of $3.6 million in 2003.  The decrease in 2004
is primarily attributable to investment in equipment for rental of $3.3 million,
purchases of property, plant and equipment, including expansion of the Company's
movie theatre in Durango, Colorado, of $2.0 million, purchases of
available-for-sale securities of $0.2 million, payments of long-term debt of
$6.9 million, payments of dividends of $0.1 million and cash used by
discontinued operation of $0.5 million offset by cash provided by operating
activities from continuing operations of $3.1 million, proceeds from the sale of
assets of $7.0 million, proceeds received from construction loan borrowings of
$1.7 million and proceeds from the Company's joint venture of $0.2 million.  The
increase in 2003 is primarily attributable to proceeds received from the sale of
the custom sports business and the sale of vacant land in Norwalk, Connecticut,
offset by investment in equipment for rental and a repayment of long-term debt.

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

The Company may, from time to time, provide estimates as to future performance.
These forward-looking statements will be estimates, and may or may not be
realized by the Company.  The Company undertakes no duty to update such
forward-looking statements.  Many factors could cause actual results to differ
from these forward-looking statements, including loss of market share through
competition, introduction of competing products by others, pressure on prices
from competition or purchasers of the Company's products, interest rate and
foreign exchange fluctuations, terrorist acts and war.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is subject to interest rate risk on its long-term debt.  The Company
manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by the use of variable and
fixed interest rate debt.  In addition the Company is exposed to foreign
currency exchange rate risk mainly as a result of investment in its Canadian
subsidiary and previously, its Australian subsidiary.  The Company may, from
time to time, enter into derivative contracts to manage its interest risk.  The
Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.  At
September 30, 2004, the Company did not hold any derivative financial
instruments.

A one percentage point change in interest rates would result in an annual
interest expense fluctuation of approximately $250,000.  A 10% change in the
Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar would result in a currency exchange
expense fluctuation of approximately $243,000, based on dealer quotes,
considering current exchange rates.


Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  The Company's President
and Co-Chief Executive Officer, Michael R. Mulcahy, the Company's Executive
Vice President and Co-Chief Executive Officer, Thomas Brandt, and the Company's
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Angela D. Toppi, have
evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure
controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly
report.  The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure
that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports
that are filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.  Based on this
evaluation, the Company's Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial
Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.  There has been no
change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting, that
occurred in the fiscal quarter, that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
